Fast friendly service - great salad bar-server was very accommodating as we had some dietary restrictions

We lost our Ruby Tuesday's in Westbrook a few years ago. Probably due to the Covid-interruption and salad bar rules... We were jazzed to find this one. Our burgers were good especially for the affordable prices. The hush puppies were just generic. The salad bar is simple and straight forward but the PUMPERNICKEL CROUTONS are . Service was very good but some of the booths are a little dated and run down. I definitely recommend getting a meal and adding on the unlimited salad bar for great value. read more

A place where hopes and dreams go to die. Booth upholstery is torn and sticky. Musty smell permeates. Food is worse than McDonald's. read more

Ruby Tuesday - Burgers Near Me - Waterville, Maine

Got a dirty cup for my drink. The food was cold and tasted like their kitchen is not clean and they are definitely not being food safe. My husband got an allergic reaction to something from eating his burger. read more

Filthy restaurant, bathrooms do not appear to have been cleaned in months and the food was terrible! I would not recommend to anyone

The food was fine. The serving was slow and took forever. I get it. People are busy. But I sat in a booth for an hour with a family behind me in another booth not being served. Probably never coming back again! read more

Went to Ruby Tuesdays 11/9/25 in Waterville Maine. I ordered the chicken and waffles. Now as someone who's lived down south and has had homemade chicken and waffles, and chicken and waffles from Waffle House I was expecting the real thing. And to be completely honest I was absolutely disgusted with what was presented to me. Microwaved chicken tenders that was over cooked. And Pre packaged store bought Belgian sugar waffles that was rock hard and cold. The waffles was inedible the chicken tenders over cooked and the cider sauce on the side almost made me puke it was so bad! As someone who's worked for mutable 4.8/5 star restaurants this is absolutely disgusting and why I don't eat at chain restaurants. Food's disgusting, environment was was quite but the booths and decor are outdated, staff are "barley friendly" can tell they just want to go home and not deal with being there. My roommate ordered the fried cat fish. It wasn't properly cooked had zero taste. And finally we both ordered drinks I got a top shelf margarita and they got a ruby refresher My margarita mango. There was absolutely zero alcohol in the first drink I was served and when I asked/told the waitress that you couldn't taste any alcohol she asked kinda rudely if I wanted a second tequila shot. I said yes. Upon getting my second margarita you could taste the alcohol and it was actually good. Over all disappointed at my experience. Any self respecting "chef" or business owner should take pride in the food they are serving and not serve garbage read more

When you order steak and scallops the scallops should not be some kind of fish cut into a scallop shape. Not only do I know what a scallop, even an over cooked rubbery one, tastes like but when I cut it in half I know what a scallop looks like. Those are not scallops and you should not be advertising them as such. You didn't fool me and I will not be eating at your establishment again. A follow up. I did contact Ruby Tuesday Management as they asked and never heard from them again. So obviously that was just added to the review to make it look like they care but they don't. Never received any satisfaction, compensation, or at the very least an admission of wrong doing and an apology. I served scallops this Labor Day Weekend to my guests. I made sure to give them a lesson in how easy it is to tell the real from a fake. Shame on you Ruby Tuesday. read more

My appetizer, Hickory Bourbon Boneless Wings were tasty but, when you see the price point $14 (13.99) for only five (insane) they become overpriced, breaded chicken nuggets. The Cheese Sticks were tasty as well and were part of a 2 for $26 meal deal. Not overly breaded and what was on them did have a good flavor. My main dish, Fish& Chips, was disappointing. Not much more than oddly shaped fish sticks. Zero flavor. The tartar sauce mix haloed that but most certainly not worth the $14 (13.99). However, our waitress was wonderful. Very pleasant and attentive but not to much so. Atmosphere was good as well. read more

Lots of healthy options. My Deconstructed Chicken Kabob was cooked to perfection. Husband ordered the Fried Pickle Smash Burger, which I wanted a bite of. The burgers were crispy around the edges and the fried pickles gave it a nice zing, really good on the brioche roll. Our waitress was personably and attentive. She almost had me overlooking the taped vinyl bench seat repair which had long since failed, the worn carpet and dusty lamp shades above us. Service, food and value was 5 Star. Ruby Tuesday's lack of attention to cleanliness and upkeep is a turn off. read more

we waited an hour for our food after driving 14 hours to Maine for a vacation. the server forgot multiple items and had to keep going back and they sat us at a table that looked like it was a refugee from a world war...the place was basically empty, as well. bless this restaurant and it's employees because I have no idea how this place has stayed open if this is a consistent issue. read more

ordered 2 T-bone steak dinners, and they were both terrible. meat was very very tough. at $27.99 a piece , if I had ordered in restaurant I would have sent back, but did to-go order for home. they need to complain to who they get their beef from. read more

I got a catfish and fries lunch, the fries were way under cooked and not seasoned at all. I don't think the catfish was catfish or any kind of fish. I don't think it was meat at all. It was also not seasoned. It looked, tasted and felt like rubber read more

Service was okay and the food was decent. Quite happy with the salad bar which is what I was craving anyway! Restaurant could have been cleaner. read more

$30+ dollars for these two sides. $6 a piece for the Mac & cheese that's not even 1/4 full and tastes like it's been sitting in the fridge for 3 days, got reheated, and served with Walmart cardboard Swiss, 1/2 melted on top. Ghost kitchen for "The saucy hen" on Doordash. I can not believe the prices for this quality/quantity. -$70 for the meal just to leave me wishing I had eaten a leg off the insect I just obliterated in helldivers instead. read more

Ruby Tuesday - Rib eye Sunday special - Burgers Near Me - Waterville, Maine

Would give a 0/5. Our server McKayla was terrible. She served several tables - with more people - before serving us. Waiting 20+ minutes just for the appetizers. I ordered the salad bar, but the vegetables were mealy from clearly sitting out, cut, under warm lamps for too long. I also ordered the deconstructed steak kebab, with the steak being overcooked to the point of being a boot, and the vegetables inedibly greasy. When I brought the manager, Mason, over to complain he was rude, condescending, and full of excuses which I did not want to hear. DO NOT EAT HERE!! Just go to Governors - right up the road, and typically closer - instead. read more

Don't bother going if it's even 45 min before closing. They might invite you in as you sit and sit and sit then realize you'll get the kitchen scrapings when no waitress shows up. read more

Ruby Tuesday - the outside of a restaurant at night - Burgers Near Me - Waterville, Maine

Very disappointing visit at the Waterville location today. The service was slow. The ordered weren't exactly correct. They didn't put mushrooms, onions, and peppers on a steak sandwich. Or groups burgers were overcooked. The portions were small. It wasn't very busy and the workers seemed more interested in playing on there cell phones then taking care of the few customers that they have. read more

This is the first visit to this location. First off, no Pepsi so that was a strike against them. I had to get a coke instead which was watered down and mostly ice. For $3. My wife had the crispy chicken Mac and cheese for $15. The portion was equivalent to a TV dinner. It was good but not $15 good. I had the hickory bourbon bacon burger and cold fries. Tasty but so is a Big Mac which would be more filling. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean. The music was quite loud but maybe that's just due to my age. Overall, not overwhelmed, don't think I'll mark this down on my list of must go places anytime soon. read more

The manager Mason allows his workers to play on their cellphone all day throughout their shifts, work isn't a time for games or social media work is to work hence food isn't always done right the employees focused on other things and the place is dusty /dirty cook preps flys etc Waterville rubys do better! Because right now you're restaurant workers making business look bad! Just trash read more

first time being there, the waitress was fun and Inviting but was not very fast paced, we sat at the table for 20 minutes before she got out drink order and was very slow bringing out our items. i ordered a well done burger and when I cut into it, half of it was raw and the other half was cooked all the way read more

Do not care for the food at this business! Greasy, unhealthy, and poor selection! Hardly visit this business as I feel sick and thirsty after a meal there! I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone unless u wanted to stop in just for a drink! read more

I normally don't ever give out one star reviews but this is one of those very rare situations that I can say was just a bad experience overall. I was with a couple of work team members and we need to stop to grab a bite on the way through from Bangor and we're looking forward to a nice hearty salad to curb the appetite. First this when we were sat at the table the waitress seemed to really not want us to sit in her section because she gave a huff and a puff and strolled right by our table. It then took about 10 minutes or so for her to even come by to ask for drinks or service. When she decided to come back and check on the table, she started with "Hey I'm .... I'll be your server .. What do you want to drink?" I was looking to see if there was any urgency or some sort of apology for it taking forever but nope ... Anyway maybe she was busy right? She the took about another 10 minutes to come back with our waters. We the knew we were going to have to order our food fast because she might not be back anytime soon. We the received our food ... She then told me the following story about my grilled chicken salad ... Soooooooo, you only have a quarter of your chicken because when the cooks tried to throw the chicken on the salad they dropped it on the floor, they are making you another piece of chicken. I don't know if I really needed to know that but with the way the service had been, the hospitality had been it just topped it off ... She then disappeared for a while until we had to flag her down for the check ... We were in our business attire so you would normally think she would know we needed to hit the road anyway. Ok ok I feel bad that I am saying nothing good about this experience but it really is what it is ... So I would avoid it and pop downtown in Waterville for some real food and friendly service. read more

I asked if the staff had all been vaccinated. The waitresses there all scurried away but one who said she had not. When asked why she said "it wasn't something she felt like doing". Well Ruby, I understand, I no longer feel like eating a Ruby Tuesday until all the staff is vaccinated. No take out either. read more

The food is great, and the waitresses are friendly, but this is the second time I've been here in the past couple months, and they don't open the door until 11:07 - 11:10. When you're hungry, it's extremely frustrating, especially when they're supposed to be open at 11 read more

Pretty good most of the time... I usually get the salad bar... It can be hit or miss with it. Either it is fresh or old lettuce etc. I wish it was the Ruby Tuesday of 10 years ago when it was clean and all updated. The salad bar always had the freshest ingredients an​d the food was served fast and warm​ read more

Well that's a bummer. We used to enjoy RT's but it seems like the whole thing has been going downhill for the last few years. Well tonight (Valentine's Day) we were looking forward to their food. I called to place an order at 4:45pm, which seemed a safe bet as it wasn't the busiest part of the dinner hour. I was put on hold for over 6 minutes. I finally hung up (assuming I'd been forgotten) and called again. When I was told I'd be put on hold I let them know I'd just been on hold for over 6 minutes, and asked if it was very busy as I didn't want to wait that long again. They said they thought it was probably pretty busy "over there" and they would try to get me connected faster (no apology). When they went to transfer my call they hung up on me. We ended up ordering from a different business. read more

I started going to Ruby Tuesdays when they first opened in Waterville, Me. That was when the food was great, the service fantastic, and you felt like family. Well lately the service has been terrible, the wait staff never heard of any specials that you get in your emails or advertised on facebook, and you don't get the deals you were hoping for. Once the special of the day for the salad bar, we were a table of four, we all ordered the salad bar, when the checks came we were charged full price. Asked waitress why and she says "you didn't say you wanted the special price when you ordered so therefore you don't get it". All done going to Ruby Tuesdays in Waterville read more

Worst burger I ever had....dry and had to look through the veggies for the burger. The waitress asked how it was, and I was honest with her. She offered another burger and I said no because it took forever to get it. I could have had a better burger at McDonalds. read more

Haven't been there in a couple years because last time I paid a lot for what I thought was an overpriced burger. Times have changed in there for the better! Their backside menu looked way more appetizing than Applebees. I got the salad bar(very filling and good). , the 6 oz bourbon sirloin(nice and tender), and a chocolate Oreo cake dessert. My wife had the peach glazed chicken, and the same other items as me. The whole meal was quite good and so was the service. Will definitely go back! read more

I came here with my girlfriend and 6 month old daughter. We sat for 20 minutes waiting to have our order taken. We then waited an additional 10-20 minutes for our appetizers to come out and they were cold! Some of them were missing too!! The waitress seem intoxicated. Couldn't stand up straight to save her life, had to repeat what we ordered 5+ before she understood what we meant. Not to mention that my girlfriends drink was made wrong twice!! Like how do you mess up that bad? I can't believe this establishment has this much business. If I could rate -5 stars I would in a heartbeat. read more

Worst waitress ever.... saw her 3 times. Once after we sat down, 2nd time to bring out our dinner 3rd time to collect money. She only had maybe 3-4 tables. We typically eat at local restaurants but we felt like the Ruby Tuesday's garden bar. What a mistake that was.... She never asked how our food was. When asking for refills, she never brought them. The hostess was the best person working in that place and we felt like she did more. She was the one to finally bring our refills. Don't get me started on the food. We ordered the pick 3 where you get an appetizer, entree and dessert cause it seemed like a good deal. The shrimp and zucchini was clearly set then forgot as one side was charred and the other side not. The steak had no seasoning, I had to season it with table salt and pepper and that didn't do anything for the taste. Mozzarella sticks came with 4 but only enough marinara sauce for 1 and half and we couldn't ask for more because the waitress never came back until our entrees came out. We probably had a few bites before we decided that we just wanted to leave. We skipped on the dessert that it came with cause we were that unsatisfied with the food and most of all our waitress. I come from a hospitality background and my parents own restaurants of their own and an Inn, so I am a firm believer in tipping and tipping well, but I would have to say this is the first time that I have ever tipped under 20%; most people would have not tipped at all. If I could redo how I tipped, I would have just given it to the hostess. If we go back we will be sitting at the bar where we know we will get our drinks refilled and only get the garden bar. read more

Went to the Waterville location last night. I got the salmon and surprisingly, there was a bone in every bite I took. It was very annoying, not to mention dangerous since it was supposed to be a filet. I told the waitress who was apologetic and said she would get me a new one. That was very nice, I didn't think twice about it. Then, the manager comes to the table acting extremely confused, asking if there was a problem with the salmon. I explained the bone situation to him and he goes on to question me acting so surprised and said he has NEVER had that happen and he doesn't know how that could happen because he has the salmon cut and brought in from a vendor and he just can't understand how that could be. He goes on to say, I'll make you another one but I just want you to know that there is a 99.9% chance that there will be bones in it also. It was very offensive the way he was acting like I was lying. We asked to just put it in a to go box (we were there long enough already.) I gathered the bones from my plate and showed the waitress when she came back and she laughed and said oh my gosh, they were in there, I'm going to go show him. She left with the bones laughing to go show him. I don't usually write reviews but I don't lie and I didn't appreciate being talked to like I was making the whole thing up. I thought he was coming over to apologize for the problem, instead he was there to imply that I was lying. He wasn't apologetic at all. Sorry for the long explanation but I won't be back there anymore due to the poor management. The server was very nice. The manager was just terrible. He made me feel like a liar when there was no need for it! read more

I preface this with the acknowledgement that I generally dislike restaurant chains... But calling this the Walmart of restaurants would be an insult to Walmart. Something as simple as a burger is so shoddy to the point a bigmac seems gourmet by comparison. At least the servers are nice, about all it has going for it if your meal happens to come out edible. The salad bar (quit calling it a garden bar!) is actually OK, but if you get a soup and salad don't expect crackers. read more

Rhonda, I think that was the waitress, was very nice. She was very nice when I told her the the chicken taco lunch item with two tacos had one taco with a single slice of chicken and the second taco with a smaller slice of chicken and a barely perceptible escort piece of chicken. The "death by onions" tacos poured out of the shell. CRAP. The queso had so much disgusting spinach and it was sweet. I want salty queso not sweet. Tasted bad. All this place has going for it is Rhonda and the tossing salad bar. But that's not enough for a restaurant that shoved a $48 bill up our you know what with $2.50 soft drinks. Screw this dump. Oh, and I never slam a place without mentioning the shortfall and this is what Rhonda said... "The cook admitted the chicken tacos have small amounts of chicken on them, and these had even less, so I should be prepared to tell customers the onion tacos are called 'chicken tacos'.", to paraphrase. So based on this piss on their crap onion tacos, sweet cheese dip and overpriced crap. Rhonda is a very friendly waitress and I would come here for drinks with my wife and customer and sit in her area. read more
